9. Have a “Harry Potter” marathon or at least watch it all in order

*SPOILER ALERT*

Many attempts with this one but I did it. Tried to run a marathon with a co-worker, Alison, but organising days and times were difficult to begin with. Ultimately, a marathon is out of the question considering one movie takes about a few hours and I barely can sit still, let alone sit for hours watching the screen one movie after another.

Watching all the movies in chronological order is the best thing to do when watching all the Harry Potter movies as I always had trouble understanding why *spoiler alert* Snape was evil but Harry, in the last movie, named his son after him. Makes so much sense now!

The first attempt, like I mentioned, was with a co-worker/ mate, Alison, as I knew she is the ultimate fan girl when it comes right down to this. I remember one time she went to London and on her Snapchat, Facebook and possibly Instagram were photos of the Harry Potter tour she went on. Incredible! Naturally contacting her was the right choice but she also just got a puppy and being myself in all of this, her dog must come over too. I forgot it was JUST a puppy. You don’t bring a puppy to a marathon! Did I regret it? Definitely not! Best decision ever! But, nevertheless, the marathon had to be postponed and was never rescheduled. So I decided to watch all the movies in chronological order whenever I had some free time.

Some parts “dragged out” because I watched them previously and expected the unexpected bits but it was very engaging! I can see why the franchise blew up and people like my friends who are also Harry Potter fanatics exist (you know who you are).
